A Dash of Info: Energy Drinks – A Look Back and a Warning

Following our deep dive on energy drinks in our latest Info On The Go episode, we’re bringing you some extra insights here on A Dash of Info.

First, we explore an energy drink from the roaring ’20s—RadiThor, a radium-laced tonic once marketed as a miracle cure, with deadly consequences. Then, we shift gears to the modern era, examining the risks of mixing caffeine and alcohol, highlighting the controversy surrounding Four Loko, and debunking myths about caffeine’s effect on sobriety.

From history’s fatal mistakes to today’s ongoing health concerns, this follow-up serves as a crucial reminder: not all energy-boosting drinks are as harmless as they seem.

Thank You for listening and Stay curious,
Kat & William
